Flexible and expandable September 1st 2007 PowerFlex powered flexible and
expandable roller conveyors from
Best Diversified Products have
been supplied to TNT Express.
A carousel layout was used for
rapid sortation, made easier as the
PowerFlex powered conveyor
could be used to create a circle in
7.3m of conveyor. PowerFlex was
suitable as the large rugged
castors allowed for the unit to be
quickly relocated, compacted (3:1
ratio) and stored away.
From the discharge end of the
fixed conveyor, a second
PowerFlex unit conveys the parcels
into a 40ft trailer on the opposite
side of the depot for onward
despatch to the central hub.
Overall depot sorting time has
been reduced by 30 mins per shift. More articles from Best Diversified Products Ltd: |
